CAASPP Testing Administration
Our annual state testing for students in grades 3-5 will take place the week of May 23, 2022. Testing for most students will take place starting Monday through Thursday. Fifth graders will also test on Friday. If you have questions as to your child's specific schedule, please be in touch with your child's teacher. Also, many teachers will be looking for classroom snacks to be brought in that day.
May is Bring Literacy to Life Month at MES
The MES Literacy Committee has planned a number of fun events and activities for students and staff to celebrate literacy during the month of May. We have our book fair and Open House planned for this month as well with daily activities relating to literacy. We're looking forward to bringing literacy to life here on campus. Ask your child what they have done to participate.
Field Trips
Many of our MES students have field trips planned for this month. Please be on the lookout for permission slips from your child's teachers. We have to have signed permission slips when students leave campus.
